Adjusting transaction speed using the BitPay Wallet

The BitPay Wallet includes a feature to adjust the miner fee included with a transaction. This will increase the transaction cost, increasing the incentive a miner has to include your transaction in a block.

Setting the fee rate policy only changes the fee for sending P2P transactions. Any time you pay a BitPay Invoice using Payment Protocol, the fee is set by the invoice and based on the merchant’s preferences.

To change the BitPay Wallet Network Fee Policy, please follow the instructions below;

1. Open the BitPay app and select the Gear icon
2. Scroll down and select Network Fee Policies
3. Adjust the network fee policy for Bitcoin, Ethereum, Polygon, Arbiturm, Base, or Optimism
